Thanks for reporting this bug. You say that only wlan0 is up. Is wlan0 set up to start at boot, or only at user login? Samba should start as soon as a network interface other than loopback comes up.
If wlan0 is coming up at boot, then is samba trying to start and failing, or is it not trying to start? (The smblog.txt unfortunately doesn't tell me when those failures happened relative to other system activity) ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1009291 Title: Samba doesn't start automatically in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1009291/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
